[ Posted to the Mirror net. After talking to a couple of people about his situation, some of them did point out Sasaki was being kept under government’s thumb. others have pointed that out before, but they never made it sound like it was a bad situation. Only recently. Everyone is so paranoid )= ]
This isn’t new and in case you didn’t know: I am biologically a ghoul and that means I can only consume humans. If you have questions, I can answer but that’s not why I’m writing this.
It’s not that difficult for a ghoul to find food, and I’m not talking about hurting people; I would never do that. You have morgues, cemeteries, suicides and humans killing each other. However, it's illegal; you cannot steal bodies, you can’t temper with murder scenes, and people wish to bury their loved ones.
The government knows my dietary needs and that's why I can’t just tell them I’ll handle my own diet - because that’s the same as telling them I’ll do something wrong. They told me if I was registered, I can have access to bodies donated to science; if I’m not registered, I don’t and thus I’d go back to the first part of the issue: they’d know I don’t have access to their food, they’d know I would have to get it somewhere else, and they’d know whatever I would do in order to get it would be considered wrong and illegal.
I’m registered because I need to eat. This is the sole reason why Kaneki was registered, and he hated it because he felt like he was pledging alliance to a government only just so he wouldn’t starve. Myself, I’m used to this because it’s the same sort of agreement I have in my world: I’m allowed to live and eat and be treated as a human, as long as I work for the CCG and obey their orders.
It’s true the government here could force me to obey them if they wanted, and I would do it. And some of you find that awful, I know. But let’s be honest, what other choice is there? What would you do in this situation? Still , the government hasn’t given anyone orders, and honestly – perks aside – I still don’t see the big difference between registered and unsettled.
So I do wonder, what’s the difference? What makes you decide you prefer to be unsettled and not registered? Or the other way around (besides the benefits). What's bad about one and another, or good?

[Daryl forces his tone to be softer, calmer, than he wanted it to be. He almost sounded tired. He didn't need to rile Tetsuo further. But both of them were part of the group and he didn't want Tetsuo going at Sasaki's throat.]
[voice]
[At least, this doesn't get any worse.]
[voice]
[voice]
And what if he does, huh?
[voice]
[After a moment, since Kaneda didn't know it was safe to assume Tetsuo didn't either.]
He's one of ours. Rick made the call.
[voice]
What was that old man thinking, dragging in someone like that?
[Says the unhinged psychic teenage berserker.]
[voice]
Don't rightly matter at this point. He's still ours.
[voice]
Who all's in this group, anyway?
[voice] ->Private
[It wasn't a lot, yet. But that's who Daryl considered part of the group.]
You got someone you want in?
[voice] Private
What, you'd just add someone if I told you to?
[voice] Private
[Said matter-of-factly. No edge to it or any attempt at being a dig. Just reinforcing the fact that Tetsuo wasn't in charge of the group that way. Rick had been, and with Rick gone, it became Daryl's call. Or Carl's. Andrea and Rosita's, too. But that was because they'd earned it through blood, sweat, and tears with each other.]
I'd ask 'em the questions, though. Watch 'em. I wouldn't say no right out.

[voice] Private
[Probably, but that doesn't mean he has to share or admit them. That would mean he's officially accepted the group himself instead of being angry Rick's no longer there to run it.
That can't do.
Of course, this is Tetsuo, who's a bad liar on a good day and hasn't had a good day in years. So it comes out defensive and quick.]
[voice] Private
Okay. Let me know when you do.
